Animaux du domaine

Now this was a pleasant surprise: Real live farm animals at Versailles. Took a wrong turn walking to the Trianon palaces but with loads of goats, sheep and horses to look at, the half-hour-long detour was well worth it.

Paris en miniature

My portable camera comes with some cool special effects I don’t often use … what better time than a vacation to play a little.
This effect makes everything look like a miniature scene. This was shot from the Eiffel Tower, with every element looking even tinier than it already is.

Marée humaine entre La Jaconde et moi

Look at how nicely she smiles at the mob before her at the Louvre Museum in Paris.

This ride's a head-turner

How odd that the Dutch, on average deemed some of the tallest people on Earth, choose to drive the world’s smallest vehicles.

Ominous sky

It’s been raining a lot in Amsterdam since I got here, so it’s made it difficult to get loads and loads of good outside shots as I usually like to do. Here’s one taken from Westerkerk, between showers.
